5 day forecast is as accurate as drawing conditions out of a hatthe next five days will be a high of 35 and a low of 16 with a 5-20 mph wind with a 40% chance of percipitation... the hardest part about that is pointing to the right part of the blue screen
does anyone know if whap is predicting a surge yet? or at all?

Yay, the NWS finally stopped smoking crack... Steady decline til April 7th http://www.crh.noaa.gov/ahps2/hydrograph.php?wfo=fgf&gage=fgon8&view=1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1
Although, I think it will drop even faster than that.

Say that From A to B is one Foot of water. B to C is one foot, C to D is one foot.
The Amount of water from C to D is considerably less than from A to B. Everytime it drops another foot closer to its banks, it has to cover less width, which in turn is less water. Pretty simple. For this reason, It should be dropping at a continually faster rate every foot it gets closer to being back in its banks -

So according to that...'graph'...the Red River is convex all the way through the FM area? Hmmm...
No, actually that just inside the riverbed. If you look at it at floodstage, it would look like this. or atleast this is how it is in my backyard.

I just heard a FEMA breifing. They are talking with Congress on how to alleviate the high waters in the FM area. They are talking about starting a much wider channel starting at 90 Ave. S in Moorhead from river almost up to 75 and going North with it to 80 Ave. then use 3rd St. up North to 40 th Ave. then use 8th St/75 North again.

So basically build a diversion around Moorhead?
